FOILS LIST

Units-Unless otherwise specified, all units are in micron (μ)

1µ = 1 micrometer = 10,000Å  = 1,000nm = 0.001mm = 0.00004 inches

T – Toxic (toxic material fee applies)
C – Contaminating (clean-up fee applies)

 

NOTE: The pictures do not represent all filters. Appearance will vary with thickness and material.

ALUMINUM

Al

99.95%

Density = 2.70

ALUMINUM (Low cost foil sheets – Made in Japan)

Al

99%

1-9 identical sheets $35.00/sheet 
10-29 identical sheets $31.00/sheet
30+ identical sheets $28.00/sheet    
Note: Low cost foil less that 4 microns thick is generally not suitable for x-ray filter or window applications.  This foil has a vast number of pinholes and defects.  Low cost foil makes excellent microphone ribbons, electrostatic shields and shims.
